Jumping straight into the review, as this is a short read and a cute Christmas story. I highly recommend the audiobook, narrated in duet by Shane East and Stella Hunter—both brilliant narrators.
This story is a second-chance romance set six years after the characters parted ways, brought together again in a forced proximity situation around Christmas time. I loved the Christmas challenges the family does as part of their tradition and the connection between the parents and siblings.
That said, since this is a short read, the connection between the characters is already established, as expected with the second-chance romance trope. Personally, I enjoy the slow build of a romance, so I felt I missed out on the excitement of their initial meeting, even though we do get glimpses of it through past memories.
Overall, I loved these two as a couple, and it’s a fun, cute story. I recommend it if you’re looking for something quick and festive to read this Christmas season!
